Benefits

Many insurance companies will try to include legal expenses insurance for personal injury claims with your insurance policy, often at an additional cost. As a UNISON member you get free legal assistance when you sustain a personal injury through UNISON’s legal assistance scheme. This is provided by UNISON’s lawyers, Thompsons Solicitors.

The following are some of the many other benefits available to UNISON members nationally:

Learning and Organising Services
